Haass, like Mitchell, is a placeman to deliver an anti-unionist agenda

Admin —  December 20, 2013

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:-

“It is certainly no surprise to me that the Haass process is putting pressure on unionists. It was never designed to do otherwise. All such international involvement has the same tilt, because the Dublin/London/Washington nexus, which drives the process, is consciously anti-unionist. It was the same when Mitchell was the frontman. Nothing has changed under Haass. The only difference is that the DUP leader was foolish enough to join with his government buddy McGuinness to call in Haass! Continue Reading…

TUV warns against Haass sell-out

Admin —  December 17, 2013
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:-
“From the outset of the Haass process I have warned that Unionism and innocent victims have nothing left to give. Now, it is clear, that this is precisely what is being demanded. Unionist participants will be judged, not by their posturing, but by what they finally concede when subjected to the pressure cooker treatment of the next few days. Continue Reading…

Adams’s Comments Sickening

Admin —  December 4, 2013

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:

“Gerry Adams’s claim that Chief Superintendent Harry Breen and Supt Bob Buchanan died because of a “laissez faire disregard for their own security” is utterly sickening.

“The Officers were murdered because bloodthirsty terrorists went out to gun them down. They were murdered because the Garda in Dundalk who they had been meeting tipped those terrorists off.

“Adams compounded the hurt and insult he inflicted when he told the Dail that the officers were “doing their duty as they saw it in the same way as IRA volunteers were doing their duty as they saw it”.

“There is NO parallel between the officers who went out that day to try and combat terror and the criminals who went out to murder the two officers who were betrayed by the Garda.”

Smithwick – Time for Dublin to Come Clean

Admin —  December 4, 2013

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:

“Smithwick is a devastating exposure of the Garda complicity in IRA murder.

“The report has confirmed what we already knew. Throughout the Troubles the Republic was effectively a safe haven for Republican criminals and it comes as no surprise that the Garda colluded in the murders of Chief Supt Harry Breen and Supt Bob Buchanan. Continue Reading…

Victims of IRA Terrorism from GB, Republic and Northern Ireland to Feature at TUV Conference

Admin —  November 15, 2013

TUV has announced that the party’s annual conference will have a focus on innocent victims this year. Speaking ahead of the event leader Jim Allister said:

“2013 has been a year when victims’ issues, after being forgotten and ignored for much too long have come to the fore. The innocent victims of IRA terrorism have found their voice and had a profound impact on the political process. In recent days the views of victims were crucial when it came to forcing a major U-Turn by the DUP when it came to the Maze shrine. Information which has emerged in the last few days about the number of visits to the site organised by DUP MLAs and MPs gives something of an insight into the selling operation engaged in by the party. Thankfully victims saw through the spin. Continue Reading…

Executive Ducking and Diving to Save Sinn Fein Blushes on Ann’s Law

Admin —  November 12, 2013

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:

“More than four months ago (8th July) the Civil Service Special Advisers Bill received Royal Assent. That meant that multiple murderer Paul Kavanagh had 3 weeks to activate the appeal mechanism to an independent panel on specified grounds. Otherwise Kavanagh would automatically lose his position 2 months after Royal Assent (September).

“At the end of September several media outlets reported that Kavanagh had received compensation for losing his position as a SpAd. Sinn Fein told the BBC at the time that he was continuing to work as a party adviser despite what they described as his current “limbo” position. Continue Reading…

Allister Responds to EU Diktat on Tobacco

Admin —  November 7, 2013

Statement by Jim Allister MLA:

“The new outworking of the unaccountable, undemocratic and unwanted EU is to impose the Tobacco Products Directive which has the potential to add fuel to the already well lit fire of the illegal tobacco market that is lining the pockets of terrorist groupings in Northern Ireland.

“The EU is seeking to abolish the packets of cigarettes which have less than 20, and to abolish small pouches of rolling tobacco. While I am supportive and welcome attempts to promote awareness of the detrimental health impact of smoking, this EU diktat will only result in a rise in the demand for illegal, counterfeit tobacco that funds terrorism.
